Inverts and Seahorses

[JimGo]

I am in the process of setting up my first Seahorse tank. I am trying to decide what inverts are safe to place in the tank, particularly in terms of clean-up crews. I assume there is no problem with small hermits and snails, but what about serpent stars? Thanks for your input.

i wouldn't risk putting one in there

 

[edwing206]

and snails and hermits will be fine

I had a serpeant star in a 25 gallon sea horse pair. Everyone minded their own business. Star stayed in the rocks and grabbed some left over food here and there, and horses swam right around him.

Hermits and snails are good too.

I have snails, hermits and emerald crabs in mine. I have a very small brittle star hitchhiker, which I NEVER see.

The green serpant star is a known piscovour. Other than that I think you are ok.
